Jane Austen steps out of the autumn of 1815 to visit you at the most vibrant and hopeful time of her life. Her first three novels — Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice, and Mansfield Park — have charmed the public, and Emma is complete. 

In this captivating 45-minute performance, drawn from her letters, juvenilia, and novels, Jane shares warm, witty, and heartfelt stories of her childhood in Steventon, her cherished sister Cassandra, her dazzling cousin Eliza, her inspiring mentor Madame LeFroy, and the loves and losses that shaped her heart and her pen. 

Whether you are a casual reader or a devoted “Janeite,” you’ll enjoy a rare, personal glimpse of Jane Austen as both the woman and the writer - followed by an open Q&A.
